Continuing from my initial image project<\/a>, I have developed quite a few more images to go with my website. Most of what I said in the original project post still stands– think of this as an “update”, rather than a replacement post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to keep the theme cohesive when constructing my main website<\/a>, as I was mostly happy with it, and think it reflects my personality and how I approach the digital world. I kept the favicon and background images the same, as I thought they looked cool, and were in line with the quality I wanted from my site. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, a new banner! The original banner looked pretty scuffed, and wasn’t in line with the quality I wanted from my site visually. This new one keeps the same color scheme, while being more high-quality and visually appealing. I wanted it to resemble the “web”, in a way, with the lines crossing over and intersecting. They also sort of give it a polygonal texture, which I think looks cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, these button navigation icons! I made the square shape and background in paint.net, and sourced the actual icons from iconmonstr.com<\/a>, a free icon website, with minor edits. These also fit the green technological theme I have going on, and are immediately clear on their function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wanted the website to look unique and home-brewed, and I think I succeeded in making these icons visually and thematically cohesive. They also resemble the grid texture on the background, so there’s synergy if you consider “rounded blocks” an aesthetic theme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The phone is just an extra icon I included on the contact sheet– I edited the color scheme to fit the rest of the website as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For my portfolio page, I wanted to make a visual button for my E-Lit project, since I wanted to feature that on my page. I basically made a basic font logo, but for the background texture, I used a Metro Map edit that I found on Reddit.<\/a> The Metro is an important location in SIM-TOM, and also resembles wiring, so I think it was thematically relevant and also looks really cool. It doesn’t fit the site’s color palette, but red\/black is the color scheme of the game, and I think the contrast in color looks cool juxtaposed with the rest of the site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m really happy with how all of these turned out. The biggest missing aspect for me is that there’s no image of myself, which is somewhat out of my hands, as I will have to wait until I have a professional-ish image taken of me. I think that these images all contribute to a cohesive and easy-to-understand website layout.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
